Today, the Bank published its 2025 Impact Report, which tracks how our portfolio is performing against our impact objectives. This is the Bank’s third full year of measuring its impact, and the data summarises the capital committed and the portfolio’s impact up until 31 December 2024. 

The Bank is an impact investor, meaning it aims to invest in companies and projects that deliver both commercial returns and societal, environmental and economic impacts. 

Its investment strategy is focused on delivering three missions: supporting a net zero economy, transforming places, and scaling innovation and technology for a more productive economy. 

The Bank’s CEO, Al Denholm, said: “Our missions to address global challenges have never been more relevant, and today’s report demonstrates our progress. 

“Our whole approach to investing is based on the belief that societal and environmental impact can go hand-in-hand with financial returns. Accurately measuring and reporting on our impact progress is an essential element in evidencing the benefit of our investment approach. 

“I’m incredibly proud of how the companies and projects in our portfolio are driving environmental impact, innovation and place-based equality across Scotland, and can’t wait to see all they will deliver in the year ahead.”
